Systems Logy from Backups

Our backup server is back online after having disks replaced. Because the primary file system was lost, we are having to prime the backups from mathserv: the I/O activity is keeping mathserv's disks and the HH network rather busy, so the msprime stations will feel a bit sluggish at times (e.g. two to three second delays when opening an application or window), probably until some time Saturday.
